Short film on UN work

THE UNITED Nations peacekeeping force in Cyprus (UNFICYP) yesterday announced the release of a short documentary film on the work of the UN in Cyprus.

The film – “UNFICYP: Building Peace in Cyprus” – summarises the continuing efforts and the diversity of support offered by UNFICYP to encourage peace in Cyprus.  It provides a factual overview of one the longest running international peacekeeping mandates by the UN since 1964.

This 11-minute film can be viewed on either the UNFICYP or Good Offices websites or viaUNFICYP’s YouTube page.

The film is also available in Greek and Turkish subtitled versions.

 

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
